Yes, it is expensive, but many ladies that have used the products rate them highly. I was curious about the line myself, but the price was a bit much to justify, since I am getting pretty good results with my 2 for $6 Tresemme and 99 cent Vo5.

 

[Lucky's Mom]

Totally!!!
And what he describes in the FAQ's - is to use more not less, along with rinsing, etc......

Gentle cleansing.........

HMMMM - sound familiar?

I would not waste a dime - just head to the Kitchen.....


Just puttin' out there for my PJ sistas!

Don't do it!!!

I believe more people are lurking these types of sites beyond those seeking a healthy head of hair for themselves .

I can see Pam from "Wen Research & Development" looking for a way to put an end to her dry hair....stumbles across LHCF and says

Pam: "Hey Chaz, why don't we create a thicker conditioner type poo, instruct customers to apply in the shower. The steam from the shower will help the product penetrate the shaft more and they simply rinse out after they shower.

They'll be able to get their body and hair clean at the same time."

Chaz: That sounds great!! Write up a brief presentation of YOUR new findings and we'll submit to the board of Chaz Inc.

I saw this infomercial the other night and was intrigued. I like the fact that this is also designed for AA hair. For all of the products that you get $30 isn't much.

He was trying to make the process seem so "revolutionary". I was like, "That's just a co-wash, all of the LHCF ladies know that!" I still want to try it though.

 

[KPH]

I ordered it.

Exactly. I looked into it on a recommendation from a WEN user. I wasn't interested in the line, just the cleansing condish. The cost for one bottle a la cart on Amazon is $28 plus shipping. I won't be buying it, but am curious about it still.
